S-5! Attachment Solutions

S-5! clamps offer durability and reliability on a variety of standing seam profiles. One size does not fit all – each clamp style is designed to have maximum holding strength while maintaining the roof’s weather-tightness and preserving the roof manufacturer’s warranty.

S-5-E Clamp - designed specifically for double-folded standing seam roof profiles. Smaller than the S-5-U clamp, but every bit as strong.

S-5-N Clamp - designed for use on popular 1” nail strip metal roof profiles.

S-5-S Clamp - extremely versatile and created for popular snap-together standing seam profiles.

S-5-T Clamp - fits certain profiles having a “T-shaped” seam configuration. Its 2-piece design allows it to be easily installed anywhere along the length of the panel seam.

S-5-U Clamp - The most popular and versatile clamp. It will fit about 85% of the standing seam profiles manufactured in North America – including most structural and architectural profiles. It can be used on vertically oriented seams, and by rotating the clamp 90 degrees, it can also be used on most horizontal 2” seam profiles.

S-5 Minis - a bit shorter than regular versions designed for medium-duty with one set screw rather than two. The mini is the choice for attaching all kinds of rooftop accessories like signs, satellite dishes or lighting. Note: not for use with snow retention.
